Mitnick tells some more of his story

Kevin Mitnick has revealed some very interesting details, concerning how he obtained access to cell phone firmware source code (great story, with some good lessons for people to take away, even today) and his involvement in hacking Tsutomu Shimomura’s computer at the San Diego Supercomputer Center. It’s all wrapped up in a nice, short, and entertaining article by Jonathan Littman, who authored The Fugitive Game: Online With Kevin Mitnick (also recommended reading).

The article’s in the new June issue of Playboy, and Mitnick has made it available on his site at : http://www.mitnicksecurity.com/images/Mitnick_Playboy_feature.pdf
